A brilliant thief and natural leader, Kelsier recruits the underworld's smartest and most trustworthy allomancers, who each share one of his many powers and relish a high-stakes challenge. Only then does he reveal his ultimate dream: not just the greatest heist in history, but the downfall of the divine despot.But even with the best criminal crew ever assembled, Kel's plan looks like the ultimate long shot, until luck brings a ragged girl named Vin into his life. Like him, she's a half-Skaa orphan, but she's lived a much harsher life. Vin has learned to expect betrayal from everyone she meets. She will have to learn to trust, if Kel is to help her master powers that she's never dreamed of.

Planeten Roshar er en turbulent verden af sten og storme. Kong Galinar, som hersker over riget Alethkar, er blevet snigmyrdet. Hans søn, Elhokar, skal nu forsøge at regere det krigsramte rige. Dalinar, som er kongens onkel, står alene med idéen om, at de evindelige krige ikke er den rette vej. Vi følger også den unge kvinde, Shallan, der forsøger at komme i lære hos en berømt videnskabskvinde, så hun kan stjæle et magisk redskab, der gør det muligt at genoprette familiens formue. Endelig er det også historien om slaven Kaladin, der er søn af en læge, men som i stedet valgte militæret. Her blev han forrådt, taget til fange som slave og må nu tjene den adel, han så indædt foragter. En konges vej er første bind - i tre dele - i Brandon Sandersons storslåede episke murstensroman, som er planlagt til i alt ti bind. Sanderson hører til blandt de største navne i amerikansk fantasy, og dette er et mustread for alle fantasylæsere, som har slugt Tolkien, Robert Jordans Wheel of time (som Sanderson i øvrigt har skrevet de seneste to bind til), Terry Goodkinds Legend of the Seeker og selvfølgelig George Martins Game of Thrones.

The #1 New York Times bestseller and sequel to Steelheart from Brandon Sanderson, the author of Oathbringer, coauthor of Robert Jordan's The Wheel of Time series, and creator of the internationally bestselling Mistborn trilogy, presents the second book in the Reckoners series: Firefight. And don't miss Calamity, the exciting conclusion to the Reckoners series! Newcago is free. They told David it was impossible, that even the Reckoners had never killed a High Epic. Yet Steelheart--invincible, immortal, unconquerable--is dead. And he died by David's hand. Eliminating Steelheart was supposed to make life simpler. Instead, it only made David realize he has questions. Big ones. And no one in Newcago can give him answers. Babylon Restored, the city formerly known as the borough of Manhattan, has possibilities, though. Ruled by the mysterious High Epic Regalia, Babylon Restored is flooded and miserable, but David is sure it's the path that will lead him to what he needs to find. Entering a city oppressed by a High Epic despot is risky, but David's willing to take the gamble. Because killing Steelheart left a hole in David's heart. A hole where his thirst for vengeance once lived. Somehow, he filled that hole with another Epic--Firefight. And now he will go on a quest darker and even more dangerous than the fight against Steelheart to find her, and to get his answers.Praise for the Reckoners Series:#1 New York Times Bestselling Series ';Another win for Sanderson . . . he's simply a brilliant writer. Period.' Patrick Rothfuss, author of the New York Times and USA Today bestseller The Name of the Wind ';Action-packed.' EW.com ';Compelling. . . . Sanderson uses plot twists that he teases enough for readers to pick up on to distract from the more dramatic reveals he has in store.' The A.V. Club
